KENTUCKY - The National Governors Association (NGA) has notified Gov. Steve Beshear that Kentucky’s application for the NGA’s Center for Best Practices’ "Executive Policy Retreat on Sentencing and Corrections" has been accepted. Kentucky is one of 14 states that will be sending representatives to the retreat. The two-and-a-half day meeting is designed to educate teams of senior-level policymakers on emerging research and promising practices to better manage corrections populations and reduce expenditures, according to the NGA.

"This is an excellent opportunity for our team to gain even greater knowledge about other options and alternatives that can help ease our prison population problems while assuring public safety," said Beshear. "I believe we are well on our way to finding those solutions and this retreat should enhance our ability to reach those goals." Read more.
